„My work analyses distances and time, places and space, culture and habits, language , morality and the resources of the earth. I believe that we must keep all these values for the future generations. I always get inspired by the simple countries, rich in culture and traditions. Rusty iron and everyday objects of our life are the main parts of my works. Let’s be part of nature instead of hiding in boxes. Let the boxes become suitcases and travel around the world only with the light luggage of our own inner values. Let’s think about nature and learn to live in harmony with it.“
